Mac - Uptown Veterans (Free Mac)

On September 21, 2001, platinum rap artist McKinley "Mac" Phipps Jr. was convicted of killing a 19-year-old man during a club show he was headlining. Though another man confessed to the crime, Phipps remains in jail, serving a 30-year prison term. Based on the confession, and the flimsy eyewitness testimony he was convicted with, it is widely believed in the rap community that he is an innocent man who is a victim of the corrupt, Louisiana justice system.
